Evaporation Control Products

Eliminate Evaporation - As California faces one of the most serious droughts in history, our evaporation control floating covers are an inexpensive option to prevent the loss of precious water from ponds and tanks. Evaporation Control Floating Covers help farmers, growers, wineries, food processors, irrigation districts, and municipal water districts eliminate the loss of water by eliminating evaporation. Evaporation control covers also help to prevent the concentration of pond liquids. This helps to control salt or mineral accumulation in irrigation water and protects water used to water livestock. An added benefit is the control or elimination of algae growth which is a concern from the regulatory standpoint.

Layfield’s Evaporation Control Covers are economical and lightweight. They use a system of floats and weights and are prefabricated in our San Diego California fabrication facility and then shipped to site ready for final field fabrication and installation. Layfield can fabricate covers for ponds and tanks of any size and shape. Typically Layfield can float a 50,000 ft2 (5,000 m2) cover onto a full pond in a single day. On some smaller ponds a cover can be made with a single pane. On larger ponds the panels are welded together in the field during deployment. Installation of our Evaporation/Algae control cover can take place in a dry pond or in a pond that is filled with water.

Contact our San Diego office to see how our economical evaporation control covers can help you preserve water. Our Evaporation Control Covers are available for both ponds and tanks.

"We were offered Geogrids made overseas from a small distributor, but we declined as their testing were suspect and they had no reputation in the market. We will only work with reputable suppliers like Layfield as their Geogrids perform as per recognized specifications."
